DIAMONDcross ST light

The first steerable rescue system for absolutely everyone! Even with complete passivity of the pilot, it has no disadvantages compared to non-steerable reserves.

Just like conventional cross canopies, the DIAMONDcross after opening initially enters a stall with vertical sinking. This reliably prevents a downplane position of the reserve.
The S-shaped profile of the DIAMONDcross canopy provides a high righting moment and ensures that the paraglider is quickly unloaded and dives down. This prevents the risk of a stable shear position between the reserve and the paraglider, facilitates pulling in the paraglider and even allows the unhooking of one riser with Pinlock or conventional carabiners.
Due to different line lengths, the base of the DIAMONDcross is fanned out in a zigzag pattern. This significantly accelerates the air intake into the canopy. However, it is associated with a substantially higher production effort.
Effective reduction of the risk of of entanglements with the main glider: The lines of the DIAMONDcross are made longer, so that the canopy opens approximately in the radius of the main glider and not within reach of the paraglider lines.
Soft Dyneema line material enables steering even with multiple twists.
The inner container has been developed on the G-Force Trainer and features an extra compartment for the lines; it is available for both integrated and front containers.
The ultra-fine woven and waterproof finished fabric allows minimal weight and packing volume with sufficient robustness.
Although the packing method of the DIAMONDcross is slightly different from that of a conventional cross canopy, it does not involve more effort.
